If you look at a map of the ski runs on Mt Washington Alpine Resort, you won't find the Alpine Village run. However, throughout the original village weaves roads wide enough for a car during the summer, but only accessible by ski, board and snowboots during the winter.

I was fortunate enough to stay in one of the village chalets last week and found out there is nothing like skiing out every morning by weaving between chalets and snow-topped trees, making fresh tracks on perfect powder.

To find the trail, swoosh under the walkway between the Alpine Lodge and the Bradley Centre. 

LATEST TIP 2009: Due to the epic snow conditions (see "perfect powder" above) the resort is staying open until late April this season!
